Five power supplies compared

Dom · Aug 6, 2003, 08:54 AM

Last year, I compared four different power supplies from Antec, Thermaltake, and Vantec. Antec's TruePower line came out as our Editor's Choice in that comparison by delivering tight DC voltage tolerances with low noise levels. Today, I've rounded up five brand-new power supplies from Ahanix, Antec, Enermax, Vantec, and Zalman to compare with each other and our previous favorite. I've updated our power supply testing gauntlet, too. Not only will we be looking at DC voltage tolerances and noise levels, we'll also take a peek at each power supply's impact on system temperatures and measure its AC ripple voltage.

Which power supply stands out from the competition as being the quietest, coolest, and cleanest source of PC power? Read on to find out.
